After penning his deal at Craven Cottage, Chambers told the club's website: “I’m really excited. I watched a lot of Fulham last season, I really like the way they play football, there’s a good manager, it’s a great club, so I’m really excited for the season ahead.

“Everyone can see that Fulham’s a club that likes to play football, play football from the back, through the lines. That’s the style of football I like as well, so I think it fits me and suits the way I play.”

Co-owner Tony Khan wrote on Twitter: “I’m very pleased to announce that Calum Chambers has joined Fulham Football Club on loan.

“Calum is a versatile defender with Premier League experience, and the combination of his strong data profile and the positive reports from our scouting department confirm that he’s a tremendous talent.
